Baylor 71 - 7 Iowa St. (Final)

The most dramatic issue in this game was whether the teams would score the 77 points predicted in the over/under line.  With less than a minute to go, the folks who bet the under had to be feeling good -- the score was 64-0 in favor of Baylor.  But with only 47 seconds left, Iowa State scored to make it 64-7.  And then Corey Coleman of Baylor ran the ensuing kickoff back 97 yards for a final touchdown -- Baylor's ninth of the day.  So the teams combined for 78 points.  As usual, therefore, Baylor covered both the point spread (33 points) and the over-under line.  In five games played in Waco this year, the Bears have averaged 70.6 points per game.

Iowa State is not as bad as they looked last night (the Cyclones only lost to Texas by one point a few weeks ago), but the Cyclones were simply overwhelmed from the opening kick.  They fall to 0-6 in all-time UCFC games.

As for Baylor, they have now won 10 games in a row -- and 10 UCFC games in a row.  Their all-time record in UCFC play is now 24-18-3.  At no point in its long history has Baylor won more than 10 consecutive football games.  Next week, they will go for the record in Lawrence, Kan., where they will face the Kansas Jayhawks.
